- Description:
- In a 1988 TV ad for Republican candidate Jerry R. Curry, Owen Pickett is depicted as weak on defense and harmful to job security. The ad emphasizes Pickett's support for Dukakis's defense cuts, which allegedly risk military jobs. Contrasted with Curry's strong military stance, Pickett is showcased in various settings criticizing these policies, while text overlays and debate highlights emphasize the negative implications of his positions on job protection and national security. Curry promises a focus on strong defense and job preservation.
